Lenny Wilken's Legacy Basketball Clinic Series Video Review Order the video set Coach Wilkens, along with Coach Dick Helm, delivers a video set worth every cent. The set includes two videos. Each covers a separate area, offense and defense. Coach Helm handles the commentary and Coach Wilkens offers analysis every step of the way. Everything covered on these tapes can be mimicked and improve your players’ games. Each section offers drills and demonstration. The only down side, if you call it one, is the amount of material covered. The coaches need every bit of tape to handle the aspects of the game they decided to include. The first tape, on offense, runs right at 1½ hours in length. The three main areas of offense are discussed and analyzed. Ball handling, passing, and shooting skills demand proper technique and form. Coach Helm goes into great depth in delivering what a player needs to know and player demonstrations are offered every step of the way. Coach Wilkens offers analysis at the end of each section with his telestration and comments. The ball handling tips are excellent. The passing section goes into detail and offers several excellent drills. The section that I most enjoyed was on shooting skills. When the coaches talk about the B-E-E-F, it is time to listen. The proper mechanics of shooting are discussed and demonstrated expertly. This 45-minute section is basic enough for the beginner, yet offers insight to help the players that are struggling with their shooting. This section makes purchasing the videos worth it.

Current Biography Excerpts: Basketball To view an excerpt from the Current Biography profile, choose from the list of names. BARKLEY, CHARLES BROWN, LARRY (with photograph) DALY, CHUCK DREXLER, CLYDE EWING, PATRICK JACKSON, PHIL ... MILLER, REGGIE (with photograph) OLAJUWON, HAKEEM O'NEAL, SHAQUILLE PIPPEN, SCOTTIE RILEY, PAT ... WILKINS, DOMINIQUE BARKLEY, CHARLES BARKLEY, CHARLES Feb. 20, 1963- Basketball player. Among the preeminent talents in the National Basketball Association is the outspoken forward of the Philadelphia 76ers, Charles Barkley, whose quick and aggressive play around the basket has placed him among the league's leading rebounders and scorers since the 1986-87 season. At six feet five inches tall, Barkley is the shortest player ever to lead the NBA in rebounding. The 250 pounds packed onto his relatively stubby frame helps Barkley to overpower taller players; never has a player so heavy been able to leap as high or dribble as skillfully. "Charles Barkley is unique with his body frame, with his structure, with his jumping ability," Pat Riley, the former head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers and currently the head coach of the New York Knicks, explained to Jan Hubbard of New York News day (February 25, 1990). "The whole thing is unique, and that's why he is truly great." An extraordinarily intense competitor, Barkley plays every game as though it were his last. "A game for Charles is a passionate experience," Matt Guokas, Barkley's former head coach with the 76ers, told Mark Ribowsky for Inside Sports (June 1986). "I've never seen anyone so ferocious in wanting to prove he's better than his opponent." But Barkley's highly emotional nature and his frequently blunt comments to reporters have often made him the center of controversy.

Your browser does not support script Lenny Wilkens Celebrity Golf Classic Tournament 1960 NBA Rookie Many basketball fans of the late 1960s and mid-1970s remember Lenny Wilkens as a tenacious, hot-shooting guard who averaged in double figures in 14 of 15 NBA seasons. Fact is, a quiet yet determined Lenny Wilkens didn't play high school basketball until the final semester of his senior year. Wilkens honed his unselfish style of play while competing in CYO basketball leagues throughout high school. His CYO coach, Father Thomas Mannion, helped Wilkens earn a scholarship to Providence College, where he shined. The six-foot-one, 180-pound Wilkens was considered small by basketball standards, but made most All-America teams as a senior in 1960. He earned MVP honors in both the NIT and the East-West College All-Star Game before being drafted in the first round of the 1960 draft by the St. Louis Hawks. Lenny Wilkens enjoyed a 15-year playing career in the NBA, and he ranks amoung the all-time leaders in assists, games played, and free throws made. He was named the Most Valuable Player of the 1971 All-Star Game in San Diego. As a player he totaled 1077 games played, 14327 field-goals made, 5394 free-throws made, 5030 rebounds and 17,772 points (16.5 avg). Despite the fact the NBA did not keep statistics on steals until Lenny's 14th season, the Lefty Thief averaged nearly 1.5 steals per game in his final two seasons. When he retired in 1975, Wilkens ranked second on the NBA all-time assist list with 7,211 (6.7 apg).

But his physical quickness as a NBA player and mental sharpness as a coachand his desire to be the best at bothhave kept him away from the classroom and on the court for the last 40 years. Called the best NBA coach ever by some, Wilkens became an undisputed basketball legend when he surpassed Boston Celtics great Red Auerbach in 1995 to become the winningest coach in NBA history.
